REAP is aimed at demonstrating that intellectual property can be published in the Internet by digital libraries in accordance with copyright laws. The article proposes an architecture/paradigm for managing rights when publishing information through Digital Libraries involving digital rights management. Based on this architecture a working prototype called REAP has been implemented and is documented and discussed in this paper.
